Why Intra-Cellular Therapies Took a Big Hit Today

Intra-Cellular Therapies' (NASDAQ: ITCI) stock could have used a little financial therapy on Tuesday. The neurologic drugs-focused biotech saw its shares decline by over 14% on the day, following news that it is entering a new round of capital-raising.

After market hours on Monday, Intra-Cellular announced that it is floating a $400 million issue of its common stock. The underwriters of the issue -- which include JPMorgan Chase unit J.P. Morgan and Bank of America Securities -- have been granted a 30-day option to collectively purchase up to an additional $60 million worth of the shares.
